5. Searching
Sweep the search coil in a side-to-side motion over the ground. Maintain a consistent height above the surface.
6. Target Identification
When a target is detected, the LCD display will show information such as target ID and depth. Different tones may also indicate the type of metal detected.
Maintenance and Care
- Clean the search coil and stem after each use with a damp cloth.
- Store the detector in a dry place away from extreme temperatures.
- Replace batteries when indicated on the display.
Troubleshooting
False Signals: Adjust sensitivity, check for nearby sources of electromagnetic interference, or ensure the search coil is not sweeping over highly mineralized soil.
No Signal: Ensure batteries are correctly installed and charged, and that the search coil is properly connected.
